Ed Miller 🐻 Andrew Nosal Save the Elephants Next up, our voters once again proved that the conservation tech community LOVES bears! Ed Miller 🐻 showcased the world-famous Katmai National Park bears as seen on the extremely popular explore.org cams - the very same population identified with #AI by BearID Project!

I am honored to be runner-up in the #Tech4Wildlife Community Choice Awards for Species Spotlight hosted by WILDLABS Community. Many thanks to the 🐻, whose fluffy-ness, enabled me to make it this far! :)

Tech Impacts is an especially important category because it recognizes how #Tech4Wildlife tools and projects make a real difference around the world. Congratulations to this year's honorees Dr Andrew Digby, BearID Project, Icas - Wild Animal Conservation Institute, Wolf Fish, and Muongeni Tamara Manda.

Delighted that the judging panel ranked our project runner up in the Tech Impacts category! Agreeing with the community choice! Fantastic to see that our community are keen to learn about the impacts of this type of tech. This will help spur us on this year! Thanks WILDLABS Community!
